Moog Inc. (NYSE: MOG.A and MOG.B), a global designer, manufacturer and integrator of precision motion control components and systems, announces the development of its newest space computer to support the next generation of on-orbit computing needs. Moog’s innovative Cascade single-board computer (SBC) is the latest advancement in high-speed, radiation-hardened space computers for multi-mission payload/bus applications for all orbital regimes.
Moog is an industry leader in spacecraft avionics technology, excelling in radiation-hardened flight computers, memory and storage processors, graphics processing units, and critical avionics for government and commercial applications. The company’s heritage extends to all orbital missions from LEO to GEO and deep space. The Moog Cascade SBC is built on a continued culture of innovation with decades of flight experience. It was developed through an internal research and development program in partnership with Microchip Technology (Nasdaq: MCHP). The collaboration is made possible as part of the early participation ecosystem for NASA’s next-generation High Performance Space Computing (HPSC) processor. The Moog Cascade SBC features Microchip’s PIC64-HPSC microprocessor, which is a 10-core, radiation-hardened RISC-V® processor.
The Moog Cascade SBC features a SOSA-compliant SpaceVPX interface for maximum interoperability. In addition to advanced computing power, it features Layer 2 Ethernet switching capabilities for data communications, advanced fault tolerance and correction, and critical safety protection features. This close collaboration between Moog and Microchip has enabled accelerated development cycle and time to market.
“The Moog Cascade SBC will bring significant capability to the space community through its interoperability, advanced safety, radiation protection and high-speed computing capabilities. We are pleased to be working with Microchip, JPL and NASA to advance this technology for future missions,” said Chris Hodge, CEO of Moog Avionics.
“We have had a strong, long-standing relationship with Moog, and they have been a great development partner as we work toward the next generation of in-orbit computing,” said Maher Fahmi, corporate vice president of Microchip Technology’s communications business unit.
Subject matter experts will be speaking about the Cascade SBC at several upcoming events, including the IEEE Space Computing Conference in Mountain View, California, July 15-19, and the Small Satellite Conference in Logan, Utah, August 5-8. More information can be found in our data sheet.
